Over 80% of Greenland is locked under a perpetual ice sheet, but during the summer the coast shrugs off its winter shroud and turns green. It’s the ideal time for hiking the fjords, exploring Viking ruins and cruising iceberg-filled bays. Our Greenland guides will help you get the most out of visiting this extraordinary island.
Love hiking? Narsarsuaq makes a great base. While away a day in the Valley of Flowers taking in lakes, glaciers, waterfalls, and lots of feisty flowers which somehow thrive in the extreme Arctic conditions.
